Objective To explore the effects of application of laparoscopic simulators in teaching of plastic surgery. Methods 10 plastic surgeons and 20 standardized training surgical residents of 2-4 years’ experience were tested about their proficiency in moving beans

pinching

suturing and tying by timing and counting. After they are trained with laparoscopic simulators 3

6

9 times with each time for 90 min

tests were taken. One-way ANOVA was adopted. Result There is significant deference before and after training of moving beans

pinching

suturing and tying（P<0.05）. Less time to finish the operation is needed after training

but there is no significant difference after training for 6 times or 9 times（P >0.05）. Conclusion Application of laparoscopic simulators in training of novices could significantly increase their operational technique in a short time

which is in favor of promotion of breast augmentation with endoscope assistant.
